IV. cap. 60, limits the . duration of Lotteries in Great Britain and Ireland to the one drawing, announced to take place Next Tuesday, 18th July. The certainty of this being the very last opportunity of adventuring in the 'Theo of Fortune has creat e d a demand tar beyond the sale of any'recent Lottery; and there is no doubt that, but for the extraordinary pressure of: the times, and the intervention of the General Elections, which en tirely absorbed the public attention fora considerable period, every Ticket and Share would-bade been sold long since.' A Re presentation of these facts to his Majesty's Government induced the Lords CommissiOners of the Treasury "to grant further time for the sale of such' Tickets as remain unsold, which will enable many pertiona to posses - themiAves of Farewell Chances for the SIX PRIZES OF THIRTY THOUSAND POUNDS, who must otherwise have suffered the Lottery:to close for ever without 'the power of partaking of its last favours. By their Lordship& Warrant, in the Gazette of 'last night, the final Drawing is tot • to e place on WroNv.snair, the Eighteenth day of OCTOBER. next, instead of, as before announCed, 'Next 'Tuesday, the 18th of July.

Ramond, on , the 13th of last month, read to the French Academy of Sciences the conclusion of. his Me- Moir on the Meteorology of the Pie du Midi (the high est mountain in Europe). M. Ramon( has - established an important fact ; namely, that while the wind at the' foot of the mountain, blowi in all directions; at its sum-', unit it is constantly southerly ; and that this southerly current isthat s which the earth's motion produces in the higher ,regions of the atmosphere, from the Equitoi to-! wards the Poles. !One day M. 'Lamontl was witness, on the Pie tin Midi, to a singular! spectacle : his own shadoW, and the'dtadowi of two persons who were with him, were thrown oa a cloud a little distance ,above them, with a surprising exactness and sharpness of !out- 1 line; and, which was more extraordinary, these sha dows were surrounded by resplendent glories, of the most bueS. '" A beholder of this magnific en t s ight;" M. Rathoad Observes, " might faney himself pres e nt at hi s own apotheosis." Bougner, Saussure's sons, and others,' have enjoyed a similar spectacle; but none of them re-' marked that sharpness of contonr, which. can he explained only by the great srimothitess of the surface of the cloud on which the shadows w6re projected. As for the glory, Boueer supposes that it May be the result of the decom position of the light produced by frozen particles sus pended in the cloud;—that the rays of the sun being in; tercepted - in the place on whieJ - 1 the shad6W falls, an increase of cold is occasioned, and the frozen particles, . be coming more numerous there and on the ed ge o f th e Shadow, produce, by the decomposition of the light, this play of its various rays. M. Ramond does not adopt thiti explanation. .In the instance which he describes, he con ciders it as certain that the slightly elevated cloud on which the shadows appeared could not, in consequence of the temperature which prevailed on the pie,!hold in suspen sion any frozen particle. The extreme transparency of the air in these elevated Situations which . prevents the caloriffe rays that pass through it, Worn heating it directly, causes several affects different from those which are ob servable on the harface of. the earth. Thus * the heat of the soil, Which absorbs the solar rap, is 'frequently upon those heights, out of all proportion to that o f the atmos phere;! Thus, again, the assembled rays at the focUS of a, lens, have much greater power than if they had Passed through gross and less transparent air. M. Raneond ,remarited that a lens a a very small ,diameter was suffi cient to set fire to a body which another lens of double its size could scarcely have, heated in low places. SKETCHES OF PARISIAN SOCIETY. (From the New Monthly Magazine.) A ludicrous adventure lately took place ,at the . house of one of our Ministers, who is remarkable for the gravity and hantfur of his manners. He invited to dinner a poet, a member of the Institute, a man distinguished fur exces sive diffidence , auttabsence of mind,. and who, like the Master of the house, is a good Jesuit. The poet some what astonished at receiving an invitation from his Excel lency, made his appearance in the dress worn by the mem bers of the Inatitute, consisting of a black coat embroidered with green silk, and a sword. What was his consternation 'When, on entering the drawing-room, he found he was the only , person in official costume, all the rest of the company being in plain . dresses I . The sword which dangled awkwardly ; by his side, striking his legs the e o cost n e g,. ; r a o o n d in h when 6 e t v v ed m p to an r y e nl N a v i e u re b a s h u i ra nc i and impeding every motion, was th e most i nconvenient m par oL o d f h to is the rest, and taking his sword from his side, he hid it un der the cushions of an Ottoman.. About nine o'clock the company began to depart, and only a few of the Mi nister's particular friends remained. Tlik was the littiitg moment for the poet to take his departure—but he still kept, his seat. .At eleven o'clock almost all 'the compa4 Were gone ; and when twelve came the poet was left alone with the Minister and his wife. His Excelleney naturally concluded that his guest had some favour to solicit; but at length, finding that he said not a word, he wished him good night, and left him alone with his wife. The Lady who was still reclining on the Ottoman, was not a little astonished at the pmt's protracted visit. The poor member of the In stitute,. overwhelmed with.. confusion, was very silent 'and very cill, and at length the Lady oppressed with drowsiness, closed her eyes. The poet thought this a fa. vourable moment for regaining possession of his sword. He cautiously approached the lady, and putting his hand beneath the cushion, seized the hilt, but not having reach. ed the scabbard; drew out only the unsheathed blade. facilitate this awful operation the poet knelt down, and She opened her. eyes just as he had extricated his sword from its hiding-place, te 4 rt y t,.

Dif ference of sex is attended with difference' of faculty. The perceptive organ., for instanc e , ar e usually more deve loped in wo men; ;he reflective in men. This is quite a boy's forehead. Come, sir, let me feel. I shall do you no ham. [The Doctor feels the child's head; Mrs. Atkins walks about the room, looking at the casts, and talking to herself.] Mrs. Atk.—Dear me, bow ghastly these faces look, as if they had been chopped off just under the chin Were the poor people all beheaded, 1 wonder! Perhaps they're taken from the French folk long ago that were guillotined! That skull looks, for all the world, like it horse's. Have horses bumps like Christians ? Oh the wonderful works of nature ! Dr. Brain.—A large qisanetiveness—a prodigious eons bativeness---firmaess strongly developed—adhesiveness small. Really, Mn. Atkins, this boy is the most striking instance of the truth of our 'science that I have ever met with in the thousands that I have examined. I never saw the propensities so strongly indicated. Let him go to sea by all means—indeed it would be of no use if you were to try to keep him at home. With such afirmness and ten , ritiveness at large, he would certainly run away. Besides, it would be a thousand pities. Here are all the organs that make a great warrior ; a superb distinetiveness—a finer combativeness than Lord Nelson should like to have a cast of the boy. Mrs. Atk.—Ab, well-a-day Dr. Brain—Acquisitiveness strong too! Mr,. A tk.—A v---A y —what's that P. Dr. Brain—Why, it means a desire to possess, which, in a boy, probably shers itself in a love of marbles, and apples, and nuts, without being very scrupulous as to the means by which they are acquired. Mrs. Atk.—Ob, it's a wonderful art ! See, William, how the Doctor find s y ou out . . Yes, he--I take shame to say it, but the boy stole all the tipples off our nonpareil tree last year; and we can't keep a gooseberry. in the gar den for him. I can trust his sister any where, she's such a good little quiet thing—but William Dr. Brain—Never fear, Mrs. Atkins; it's an excellent organ, under proper government, and will turn to a desire to capture Dutch spice ships and Spanish argosies. You must send him to sea. WS.

Just here, Mrs. Atkins—here, my good lady. If 1 had another child, I could spew you what I mean in a moment. Mrs. Atk.—Rtin and fetch your sister, William. Dr. Brain—Ay, then I can ex pl a i n the difference. I'll venture to say there is not such a combativeness—why don't you go for your sister, my little nUtft, as your nutttuna bids you ? Atk.—Why do you stand there like a simpleton ? Go tor Fanny this moment. Child—Pray, mamma, don't besangry, I am Fanny. Mrs. Atka—Oh, dear me! Dear me! This is one of William's unlucky tricks! Get out of my sight, you good-for-nothing hussy. What will the Doctor say tti be made such a fool of! Dr. Bruin. —Make a fool of me, Mrs. Atkins ! I should like to see the persota that could do that. It is not all the tricks or men, women, aml children, that can put down phrenology. But I give you warning, my good unidam, that whatever trouble you truly - have with your son,.. YOU will have more with your daughter. I was never mistaken in my life, and there are organs in that little noddle, fit to belong to Joan of Arc. Good morning Mrs. Atkins! She'll follow the drum, I tell you ; or, very likely, go to sea herself. Good morning, ma'am. Make a fool of a phrenologist indeed I—Blackwood's Magazine. THE OSTAgtigx.l4s, Manso, al ready advantage - 044y known to the lovers of historical researches by his History ofConstantine the Great, has presented them with a work not leas important, " An History of the Empire of the Ostro goth* in Italy." In the rst pinee, he rapidly sketches the domination of the Ostrogoths in Italy, until the death ofTheodorie the G real, from 493 till 51,5, mingling very interesting remarks with very valua ble facts.. The second division of the, work commences with 4 picture of the state of Italy, from the time of Augustus, in which the: author reviews the various administrative branches of the Go vernment of the Italian people. The third part of the work is entitled, " Of the immediate &trees:sirs of Theodorie,- from 526 till 536 ;" here the author draws a parallel between the till* an^ terior to the invasion of these people called Isabariims, and that of their domination.
